ABOUT ME

Hello, currently I am working on my Master's Degree at the College of Engineering in the University of Cincinnati. Orignally from the Cleveland, Ohio area, I spend a good amount of time in both the north and south extremes of Ohio.

PHILOSOPHY

If no one knows you better than yourself, and you don't hold yourself in high regards, why should I doubt you?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Organize/Attend Cincinnati couchsurfing group get-togethers. Promote this organization to all of the open minded travel conscious people I know. Host when available and be the best surfer possible when on the road.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I try to stay with friends or friends of friends in every city or country I go. Its fun to talk with people from places I have never been, and then meet them and their culture all at once.

Interests

In no particular order: live music, nonfiction books, cartoons, soup, blankets, driving fast, musicals, computers, my nephews, traveling, singing, rocket science, stunt man stuff, punk rock, the stars at night, water fountains, camping, mountains, rice, girls, medieval weapons, torture museums, all religions, fire, wine, cigars, learning, smiles, paintings, and a bunch of other stuff I can't think of right now.
